Kervan Games opened the Steam store page for 'Off Tape: Welcome' on July 5, 2026, with a November 2026 release window. The first-person horror game puts players in a record store where they create and sell media that seals human emotions, working for the mysterious 'The Tobacconists'. Customers are not always ordinary: players must fend off monsters with a shotgun, eliminate spirits with a camera, and monitor nine surveillance cameras to identify threats before they enter. The game includes harmless anomalous entities and unavoidable higher beings, forcing players to choose between serving, attacking, photographing, or evacuating. The story spans 5-6 hours with multiple endings. Pricing has not been announced.
